He attended leclnree, studied hard,
And very quickly passed the board
He opened oOlce, bung out sign,
Bnt many patleote cos Id not find.
Each day be sat, with saddened face,
For poverty came on apace j
At last a frleed gave bltn advice
Which changed his fortune In a trice.
Now patients fiocked from far aod near,
And kept him busy all the year

No doctor caa with him compare

To warm them at tbe wood fire's blase f

Of aweslness near, be known not whence.
